Answer 1

Based on the structure of their mycelium and plasmogamy technique, fungi can be classified into five groups:

There are decomposers and parasites in every class. As far as I know (I could be wrong), fungal parasites mostly cause skin diseases in humans, so they are not usually fatal. However, some parasitic fungi, like helminthosporum orizae, which causes white rust of wheat, can cause famines, epidemics, and the destruction of large areas of fields.
